    Why Root partition is getting full during ISO copy to a different disk or storage

    Mounting to /media didn't help. I ended up uploading through winscp. Will try tweaking /var/vzdump.conf. But still not comfortable with the way GUI based ISO upload is designed to first go to /var/tmp and than to the actual destination. Thanks for all the help.

    Why Root partition is getting full during ISO copy to a different disk or storage

    So, mounting USB based drives to /mnt is different than mounting to /media?. My understanding is I can mount anywhere?. Please correct me, my linux skills are not very good. This 500gb HDD connected via USB will be my storage for ISOs and backups.

Wondering if this is the normal way or a workaround is available?. Any suggestion for me to avoid this?. My apology if I...

    Why Root partition is getting full during ISO copy to a different disk or storage

    In an attempt to move away from Vmware once and forever, I installed Proxmox 5.3 a couple days back on a 32gb USB in my home setup with all the default options during install. I moved my pfsense firewall (fresh install as a VM) to this setup and everything worked like a charm. However, I'm...
